Rote, (Laroy Dodge and Walter Day. Venezuelan Filmgoers Demand Real Thing Caracas, Venezuela The idea of dubbing Spanish dialogue; into American movies isn't going over in Caracas. The two principal complaints are that it is impossible to synchronize the Spanish with the movement of the actor's lips, and that it is incongruous to hear Spanish coming from an actor who doesn't gesture. For a 'Latin to speak without i gestures is, you say, like ham without eggs. And bad synchronization can produce a laugh in the most serious sequence.

American movies with Spanish dialogue have a tremendous appeal in the small villages where illiteracy is highest, but Caracas' more discriminating movie houses refuse to show the American product except with its original dialogue. It is estimated that one out of every five men and one out of every 15 women in the United States is or has been tattooed.

Get In the scrapi Clothing Price Rollback Fades Washington-(P)-The government's plans for rolling back clothing prices appeared today to be side-tracked indefinitely.

I Chances for a 6 to 7 per cent cut I in retail prices- the goal set early the OPA further price! this year- received another jolt concessions to fabric manufacturers. The agency announced last night that for the rest of this year producers of woolen and worsted fabrics can turn out about the same price lines, of merchandise they did before the rollback was ordered. 'Start Year? Beginning in 1946 they will be required to trim their average some, but not so much revised as originally planned. The order. will be based on prices I slightly less than those which pre; vailed in 1944, rather than on 1943 prices.

This is being done, OPA said, because military requirements land restrictions on the use of virgin wool in 1943 made that period "unrepresentative of normal civil- I ian operations." While only fabrics are affected at present, it was learned that OPA soon will make similar justments for garment manufacturers, This means that at least part of the projected retail cut will be wiped out for such apparel as men's suits and overcoats, children's snowsuits, girls' skirts, women's coats and a wide variety of other items. Prices Up The adjustments for woolens and worsteds came close, on the heels of retail increases for cotton garments. These also canceled part of planned reductions. They were allowed, OPA explained last week because expansion of the inex-: pensive clothing program left merchants with too-narrow profit margins for most of their gar-, ments. Upward adjustments manufacturers of rayon fabrics, also have been allowed, and probably will be passed on in the retail cost of rayon clothing.

OPA says, however, that most of planned price cut for such garments still can be put into effect. Clothing prices have climbed 12 per, cent officials in the have last 22 described months. the rise as the most serious inflation threat at present.
